How to make AI-generated images
Go from idea to a delivered asset in three steps, with nothing to install.
- Describe it: write a prompt for the image you want, or drop in a photo to build on.
- Generate: get results in seconds and keep tweaking the prompt until it looks right.
- Optimize and deliver: Cloudinary formats, resizes, and serves the final image anywhere.
Any style, dialed in with a few words
Photoreal, illustrated, 3D, watercolor, line art, neon, retro: steer the look, mood, and composition right from your prompt. Keep one consistent style across a whole set, then generate in the exact aspect ratio and resolution each placement needs.
Generate once, deliver everywhere
The image you generate doesn’t just sit in a folder. It lands in Cloudinary, ready to resize, reformat, and serve through the same pipeline that already powers your site and apps. One asset becomes every crop, format, and size your channels need, delivered fast to every device.
FAQ
It generates a clean, well lit professional portrait from a description: the kind of photo that goes on a LinkedIn profile, a team page or a conference bio. Even lighting, a neutral backdrop and a composition that still reads when it is shrunk to a small circle, without booking a photographer or a studio.
It is not a separate product you sign up for. Image generation is a feature of Cloudinary, so everything you create lands in your media library alongside the rest of your assets, ready to crop, resize, optimize and deliver through the same APIs and SDKs your team already uses. That matters once a generated image stops being a one off and has to exist in five sizes across three channels.
Yes. It runs on Cloudinary’s API and SDKs, so you can generate professional photos from your own app with a single call and get an optimized URL back. Useful when a product needs a consistent portrait for every new account, or when a directory has to be filled without chasing people for headshots.
It follows the conventions of business photography rather than portrait art. That means flat even lighting instead of drama, a plain backdrop that does not compete, framing from the chest up, and a neutral expression. Those are the things that make a photo look professional rather than merely good.
Headshots for profiles and CVs, team and about pages, speaker and author bios, press kits, and placeholder portraits for a design mockup before the real photos exist.
Generate once and let Cloudinary produce every size and format from that single asset. The same portrait can go out as a large hero, a thumbnail, a social card and an avatar, in WebP or AVIF for browsers that support them and JPEG for the ones that do not, without you exporting anything by hand.
Sign up for a free Cloudinary account and describe what you want in the prompt box, or call the API with the same prompt from your own code. The first results come back in seconds and are already in your media library, so the next step, whether that is a crop, an overlay or a delivery URL, is one call away. If you have a real photo already and need it at an official size, use Passport Size Photo, and for an avatar version see Profile Picture Maker.
